摘要:
A motor drive mode for driving a vehicle with only a second motor/generator is available in a selected one of two motor drive sub-modes consisting of a response-oriented motor drive sub-mode established by placing a forward drive clutch in a released state and placing a starting clutch in an engaged state, and a fuel-economy-oriented motor drive sub-mode established by placing the forward drive clutch in an engaged state and placing the starting clutch in a released state. In the response-oriented motor drive sub-mode in which an engine and a transmission are disconnected from each other, the engine can be efficiently started to change the vehicle drive mode to an engine drive mode, and an engaging action of only the forward drive clutch is required after starting of the engine, so that the engine drive mode can be established with a high response. In the fuel-economy-oriented motor drive sub-mode, the starting clutch is released to disconnect the transmission from the motor/generator, for reducing a power loss and improving fuel economy. After starting of the engine to establish the engine drive mode, an engaging action of only the starting clutch is required.

Drain holes are arranged in positions offset from valve holes of a valve body. The drain holes have a long chimney-shaped space such that even if insulation material, that has peeled off of an electric motor, is suspended in oil, it is less likely to enter drain chambers through the drain holes.

摘要:
A drive control device for a hybrid vehicle is provided with a differential device having four rotary elements. One of the four rotary elements is constituted by rotary components of each of a first and a second differential mechanisms selectively connected to each other through a clutch. One of the rotary components of said first and second differential mechanisms selectively connected through said clutch is selectively fixed to a stationary member through a brake. The drive control device comprises a brake engagement control portion configured to place the brake in an engaged state upon starting an engine, and an electric motor operation control portion configured to operate a first electric motor to raise a speed of a rotary motion of the engine for starting of the engine and to operate a second electric motor to reduce a reaction force during starting of said engine acting on an output rotary member.

A drive control device for a hybrid vehicle is provided with a differential device including four rotary elements; and an engine, first and second electric motors and an output rotary member which are respectively connected to the four rotary elements. One of the four rotary elements is constituted by a rotary component of a first differential mechanism and a rotary component of a second differential mechanism selectively connected through a clutch, and one of the rotary components is selectively fixed to a stationary member through a brake. The drive control device comprises: an engine stop control portion configured to control the first and second electric motors so as to generate torques in respective opposite directions when the engine is required to be stopped during running of the hybrid vehicle in an engine drive mode in which the clutch is placed in an engaged state, the engine stop control portion reversing the directions of the torques generated by the first and second electric motors while the hybrid vehicle is in a coasting run, with respect to those generated while the hybrid vehicle is in a positive driving run.
摘要:
This control device is applied to a hybrid vehicle that is provided with a motor lock mechanism that changes over the state of a power distribution mechanism between a differentiating state in which a differentially rotating state between an engine and a first motor-generator is permitted, and a non-differentiating state in which the rotation of the first motor-generator is prohibited. The control device stops combustion by the engine and changes over to an EV mode when predetermined conditions become valid during implementation by the power distribution mechanism of a differentiating mode of the differentiating state or of a non-differentiating mode of the non-differentiating state. The condition is set to be more severe while the non-differentiating mode is being implemented, as compared with the case while the differentiating mode is being implemented.

摘要:
A vehicle control apparatus configured to selectively establish one of a first drive state in which a vehicle drive force is generated primarily by a second motor/generator operated with an electric energy supplied from an electric-energy storage device while an engine is placed in a rest state, and a second drive state in which a first motor/generator is operated with a drive force of the engine, to generate an electric energy and in which the vehicle drive force is generated primarily by the second motor/generator operated with at least the electric energy generated by the first motor/generator. The vehicle control apparatus is further configured such that the vehicle drive force generated in the second drive state at a given value of an accelerator pedal operation amount θacc is larger than that generated in the first drive state.
